00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,880
Good morning and a warm welcome to your show, Sunny Mornings in San Diego.

2
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:13,040
I'm your host Melissa and it's Thursday, October 24th.

3
00:00:13,040 --> 00:00:14,800
You'll be interested to know.

4
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:20,240
21 years ago, today, in 2003.

5
00:00:20,240 --> 00:00:26,200
The Concorde, a supersonic passenger aircraft, concluded its final journey with British Airways,

6
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:30,280
marking the end of an iconic era in aviation.

7
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:36,240
This historic event followed Air France's cessation of supersonic flights earlier in the year,

8
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:40,960
highlighting the end of commercial supersonic travel.

9
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,080
So now you know.

10
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:49,240
And now, it's time for the Surf Report.

11
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:53,280
Expect waste to stomach-high ground swell on Thursday,

12
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:59,440
with glassy morning conditions and light offshore winds becoming semi-choppy in the afternoon

13
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:04,600
as winds shift onshore at 5 to 10 miles per hour.

14
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:09,360
On Friday and Saturday, more ground swell with needle-waist-high surf,

15
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:16,000
maintaining glassy conditions in the morning and shifting to semi-choppy in the afternoon.

16
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:21,960
Saturday is needle-waist-high in the morning, building to waste-to-stomach-high in the afternoon,

17
00:01:21,960 --> 00:01:27,800
with glassy morning conditions and semi-choppy conditions later.

18
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:31,760
Thursday at Tourmaline and South San Diego,

19
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:38,840
it's looking clean at 3 plus feet until noon, then fair to clean until sunset.

20
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:44,240
Best time to ride is at 7 a.m. with a 4-foot outgoing high tide,

21
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:51,480
when a south swell is 2 feet at 15 seconds and the onshore wind is 1 mile per hour.

22
00:01:51,480 --> 00:02:00,080
The first high tide Thursday will be 4 foot at 6.15 a.m. with a 3.5 foot low tide at 10.30.

23
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:08,560
The near shore buoy at Scripps in La Jolla reads 67 degrees for the water temperature.

24
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:15,040
This morning it's patchy fog and feels like 62 degrees with no wind.

25
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:21,400
The sunset will take place at 6.04 and it will rise again tomorrow at 7.01.

26
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:26,680
It looks like grin for some patchy fog before 11 a.m., then turning partly sunny

27
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:30,960
with a high around 74 and a light breeze.

28
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:41,560
Tonight, expect mostly cloudy skies with some fog after 11 p.m., a low of 58, and calm winds.

29
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:49,760
Looking ahead in the weather, expect patchy fog each morning through Sunday, clearing by mid-morning.

30
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,840
Daytime highs will reach the low to mid 70s.

31
00:02:53,840 --> 00:03:02,280
Nights will be mostly cloudy with lows in the upper 50s to lower 60s and a slight chance of rain Monday morning.

32
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,520
Bonjour, food enthusiasts!

33
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:10,240
This podcast is brought to you by Versailles Cafe and Pastries in Encinitas.

34
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:19,360
Nestled on El Camino Real South, just north of Encinitas Boulevard, this cafe is a haven for culinary delights.

35
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:24,960
Indulge in their amazing Eggs Benedict or their gluten-free crepes.

36
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:30,320
You can grab a panini for lunch or just breeze on through to get your morning coffee.

37
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,720
They are open every day from 8 to 5.

38
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,920
So stop on by and don't forget to tell them.

39
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:40,520
Sunny mornings send you.

40
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:48,800
In local news, demolition of the burned buildings at Oceanside Pier is set to continue for several months.

41
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:54,440
City engineers stated that fire damage was more extensive than initially believed,

42
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:59,200
requiring the removal of all planking from the hammerhead section.

43
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:03,160
They noted, we're finding new things every day.

44
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:08,240
Workers are currently cutting steel beams from the former restaurant structure.

45
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:18,640
The total demolition cost is approximately $1.3 million, while repairs could range between $3 million and $20 million.

46
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:29,800
It will take at least three more years before the pier reopens, with no restaurant planned upon completion.

47
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,400
Now on to sports.

48
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:39,880
The Los Angeles Dodgers face the New York Yankees tomorrow night in Game 1 of the World Series.

49
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:45,680
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts stated that Shohei Otani will not pitch in the final games,

50
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:51,680
though he left a slight possibility for Otani to pitch in some special circumstance.

51
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:59,640
Otani has excelled as a designated hitter this season with 54 homers and 130 runs batted in,

52
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:04,880
but his pitching remains uncertain for the 2024 World Series.

53
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:15,320
On Thursday night football, the Los Angeles Rams, at 2 and 4, host the Minnesota Vikings, who are 5 and 1 at SoFi Stadium.

54
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:24,760
Rams head coach Sean McVeigh faces his former assistant, Kevin O'Connell, now leading the Vikings with Sam Darnold at quarterback.

55
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:30,680
Cooper Cup returns from injury, aiming to exploit Minnesota's poorest past defense.

56
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:38,440
With the Rams offense struggling, oddsmakers favor the Vikings with an over-under set at 49.

57
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,920
In local sports.

58
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:47,520
Tonight, the Kings, standing at 3-2 and 2, will face off against the struggling San Jose Sharks,

59
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:51,280
who are still seeking their first win of the season.

60
00:05:51,280 --> 00:05:57,600
The Kings, led by Anz Coppidor, boast a solid average of 3.14 goals per game

61
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:03,680
and will challenge the Sharks' goalie Mackenzie Blackwood at Crypto.com Arena.

62
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:10,560
Tomorrow night, the Lakers will host the Phoenix Suns in Game 2 of the season.

63
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:18,120
In top news, a world without passwords may soon be a reality, thanks to passkeys.

64
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:27,520
Apple has identified that 249 of My Passwords require attention due to reuse and data breaches.

65
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:33,000
The Fido Alliance, which includes major companies like Amazon, Apple and Google,

66
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:38,680
has been developing passkeys to enhance security and ease of use.

67
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:45,280
These passkeys consist of two encrypted files that eliminate the need for traditional passwords.

68
00:06:45,280 --> 00:06:53,360
Users can log in with a fingerprint, face recognition or a PIN, making the process swift and secure.

69
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:59,920
While passwords may linger, their relevance is fading as more platforms adopt passkeys.

70
00:06:59,920 --> 00:07:04,760
In business news, Ernst & Young, known as EY,

71
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:13,000
recently faced backlash after firing dozens of employees for cheating during its Ignite Learning Week in May.

72
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:17,560
Employees were expected to take online courses for professional development,

73
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:23,000
but those who attended multiple courses simultaneously were let go.

74
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:27,440
This decision shocked many as the culture at EY promotes multitasking,

75
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:31,600
with some staff even taking two client calls at once.

76
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:41,040
The average salary at EY in New York City is over $100,000, with an additional annual bonus of $10,000.

77
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:47,720
In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just under $67,400.

78
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,080
Ethereum is just under $2,600.

79
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:59,400
And Goatseas Maximus, which is turning the crypto market on its head, is nearing 75 cents.

80
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,000
Moving on to a more local vibe.

81
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,360
In our community spotlight on health and wellness,

82
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:13,200
we are working with a national Pilates studio to bring you some free classes, so listen up.

83
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:18,240
Check out Club Pilates, with several locations in the San Diego area.

84
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,560
Pilates presents a comprehensive wellness approach,

85
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:27,240
cultivating strength, reducing tension and elevating mental well-being.

86
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:31,120
Scientific research affirms its benefits.

87
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:35,360
So now you can check out Club Pilates for a free class,

88
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:42,520
with locations in Encinitas, Solana Beach, Oceanside, La Jolla and more.

89
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:46,760
Just be sure to tell them Sunny Morning sent you by.

90
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:50,400
And now back to the show.

91
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,440
Let's talk science.

92
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:59,040
A recent clinical trial by Science Corporation has shown promising results for a retina implant,

93
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:04,640
designed to improve vision in individuals with severe vision loss.

94
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:11,360
The implant has allowed legally blind participants to read text and recognize playing cards.

95
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,960
Dr. Frank Holes, the trial's scientific coordinator,

96
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:20,400
hailed the findings as a milestone for treating age-related macular degeneration,

97
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:24,480
which affects 20 million people in the United States.

98
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:29,960
The setup includes an implant, a camera on glasses and a pocket computer.

99
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:33,760
Participants showed significant improvements in visual acuity,

100
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:40,120
with results suggesting a potential shift from 20-320 vision to 20-200.

101
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:45,920
The Entertainment News

102
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:51,200
Lionscape's losing streak raises questions about the future of mid-budget films,

103
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:55,520
amid a series of disappointing box office performances.

104
00:09:55,520 --> 00:10:03,800
Eli Roth's video game adaptation, Borderlands, is expected to lead to a $30 million write-down.

105
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:10,400
From early August to mid-October, seven films, including The Killer's Game and Megalopolis,

106
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:16,120
struggle to attract audiences, collectively earning only a fraction of their budgets.

107
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:23,160
Despite a strong lineup last year, including John Wickford's shares have fallen over 30%.

108
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:26,040
Upcoming releases may offer hope for a rebound,

109
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:31,880
yet the entire industry faces significant economic challenges.

110
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:36,720
Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day.

111
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:43,840
And today, our quote comes from the Jamaican musician and cultural icon, Bob Marley.

112
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,560
And he said...

113
00:10:45,560 --> 00:10:52,360
One good thing about music, when it hits you feel no pain.

114
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:58,320
One good thing about music, when it hits you feel no pain.

115
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:05,120
So hit me with music, so hit me with music now.

116
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,880
And that's a wrap for this morning.

117
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:14,120
You can check out our Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok for some captivating aerial videos,

118
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,400
with local news and the surf reports.

119
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,720
Have an amazing day, my good friends.

120
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:36,520
We'll see you tomorrow with another episode of Sunny Mornings in San Diego.
